Review: Things She’s Seen (Northern Circle Coven #2) by Pat Esden

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: Things She’s Seen (Northern Circle Coven #2) by Pat Esden

When I started reading this one, I didn’t know that it was part of a series. I read the summary and I thought it sounded interesting and I was totally on board with reading it.

I started to notice fairly quickly that I was missing some gaps in the story and I went on to Goodreads and noticed that it was in fact the second book in a series. I decided to keep plugging away at this book though rather than go back to read the first book.

While I was missing some bits of the larger story, I thought the author was doing a reasonable job keeping the reader up on the goings on of the previous book. Continue reading “Review: Things She’s Seen (Northern Circle Coven #2) by Pat Esden” →

Review: The Clergyman’s Wife: A Pride and Prejudice Novel by Molly Greeley

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: The Clergyman’s Wife: A Pride and Prejudice Novel by Molly Greeley

Charlotte Lucas always seemed like the least interesting character in Pride and Prejudice to me.

We barely saw her in most of the story and though she was a good friend to Lizzy, the last we saw of her she was basically walking away with Elizabeth’s best hope of a husband (at that point any way).

So when I saw that this one was coming out, I was eager to see how the author would portray Charlotte in this reimagining. It sounded so promising and after I read the pitch, I found myself wondering—what DID happen to Charlotte Lucas and Mr Collins?!

Needless to say, I was eager to see how this one played out and started reading it as soon as I downloaded it.
